I am having trouble getting any of the videos to play inside of VAM via the browser, for example YT does work but some of the naughty video sites do not, keep seing error: format not supported.
Is this a config issue on my part or they just do not work?
 
VAM Browser is obsolete. Unless you use webm from a source you own/ensure it's the proper format. Most modern websites won't be properly handled by the browser.
 
Aren't some sites blacklisted, or the opposite, only a few are whitelisted? Because it's obsolete, it has to have restrictions for security.

Because "IF" ?
If that's what you meant, it's not like anybody is using that to browse since pretty much all modern websites do not even work properly on it.

Beyond that, it's no different than on any browser, what you're browsing to and accepting falls down on you. If you go on "questionable" websites through VAM, it falls down on the user I suppose.
 
Ok so yeah it's just an obsolete internal browser sort of thing and being recognized as such by some websites.
